Abstract
During the current research, the present situation of cassava production and technology, as well as commercialization and consumption, were investigated in Cote dIvoire. The study included 800 value chain participants who were chosen at random from three ecological regions: south, west, and center. 300 farmers, 250 government regional district or village-based policy advisors, and 250 consumers were interviewed using a baseline survey form. According to the findings, approximately 35% of cassava producers are aware of the new cassava varieties, and more than 80% of those who are informed decided to utilize them. Traditional kinds are favoured by farmers (40 percent to 90 percent) over improved types, according to a study conducted in ecoregions. Despite the good yields, high food processing capacity, and taste features indicated by farmers, improved varieties Bocou 1, TMS4 (2)1425, and Bocou 2 are less popular for cultivation. More than half of the farmers said they would use the Rapid Seed Multiplication (RSM) approach. In contrast to the West and South, where pounded cassava is more commonly consumed, other locations examined prefer dehydrated cassava (Attieke) meal. Despite enhanced varieties high yields and cassava growers eagerness to adopt new cassava technologies, research and extension services should be strengthened to account for the ecological particularities of production, commercialization, and consumption.
